How to use this tool

  1. Enter your own assumptions using a consistent currency and period.
  2. Review the scenario outputs and compare alternative inputs.
  3. Check the stated model limits before using the result in an operating plan.

Try this example

{
  "short_units": 200,
  "lost_fraction": 70,
  "unit_contribution": 15,
  "expedite": 1800,
  "handling": 100
}

Accuracy and scope

Deterministic planning scenario; inputs are assumptions, not forecasts. Excludes taxes, financing, legal requirements and costs not explicitly entered. Source explains the underlying planning framework; this specific scenario arithmetic is original.
